French artists Anne and Patrick Poirier (born in 1941 and 1942 respectively) grew up during World War II and saw the destruction wrought by bombing, invasion, and collaboration. Though they have worked in a variety of media--photography, drawing, installation and monumental public sculpture--their oeuvre has always dealt with themes surrounding memory. This collection of 30 years of work is full of archeology, ruins, memento mori (including skulls holding miniature models of ancient monuments), disintegration, loss and remembering. As they articulate it, "we believe that ignorance or the destruction of cultural memory brings in its wake every sort of oblivion, falsehood and excess...and that we must, with all the modest means at our disposal, oppose this generalized amnesia and destruction." The Poiriers have been the subjects of solo exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, among others.
A monograph on Keith Sonnier, the revolutionary pioneer of the Process Art movement, this book documents five decades of the artist's prolific and ever-evolving exploration of three-dimensional art. One of the first artists to use light, specifically neon, as a form of sculpture, Keith Sonnier changed our ideas of what sculpture is and could be. From his early pieces such as Rat Tail Exercise and the Ba-O-Ba series to his most recent luminous neon-based series, this book explores the progression and influence of Sonnier's oeuvre. Essays in the book look at Sonnier's numerous public art projects, including a kilometer-long installation at the Munich airport, his relationship with his native Louisiana culture, and the architectural influences in his work. One of the art world's most productive figures, Sonnier continues to redefine the parameters of sculpture. This beautiful monograph celebrates an artist who has never ceased experimenting--and never stopped astonishing his audience. Published in association with the Parrish Art Museum
As one of the greatest pioneers of international conceptual art, Italian artist Piero Manzoni (1933-1963) maintained strong ties with the Netherlands. The unlocking of his intensive correspondence with Rotterdam gallery owner Hans Sonnenberg has revealed the extent of Manzoni's influence on the post-war avant-garde in the Netherlands.0During his short artistic career Piero Manzoni produced more than a thousand canvases, sculptures and other objects. He radically rejected the conventional context of the work of art, even integrating the body of the artist in the work. He also created so-called Achromes, literally: ?without colour.? Manzoni considered the surface of the canvas to be a space of unlimited possibilities. It no longer accommodated the illusion of the painted representation, or the artist's personal expressive gesture, but it became an autonomous entity instead. Manzoni's work was of great influence on artists associated with the Dutch nul-groep and the international ZERO movement.0'Manzoni in Holland' is the untold story of the special relationship that one of the most prominent avant-garde artists of the twentieth century had with the Netherlands.00Exhibition: Stedelijk Museum, Schiedam, The Netherlands (18.02.-02.06.2019).

Essays on “how motion pictures in the first two decades of the 20th century constructed ‘communities of nationality’ . . . recommended.” —Choice While many studies have been written on national cinemas, Early Cinema and the “National” is the first anthology to focus on the concept of national film culture from a wide methodological spectrum of interests, including not only visual and narrative forms, but also international geopolitics, exhibition and marketing practices, and pressing linkages to national imageries. The essays in this richly illustrated landmark anthology are devoted to reconsidering the nation as a framing category for writing cinema history. Many of the 34 contributors show that concepts of a national identity played a role in establishing the parameters of cinema’s early development, from technological change to discourses of stardom, from emerging genres to intertitling practices. Yet, as others attest, national meanings could often become knotty in other contexts, when concepts of nationhood were contested in relation to colonial/imperial histories and regional configurations. Early Cinema and the “National” takes stock of a formative moment in cinema history, tracing the beginnings of the process whereby nations learned to imagine themselves through moving images.
This book is a vivid document of his major contributions to a more idealistic era of extreme innovation and radicality in art. Oppenheim's practice uniquely forms the main transition between Land Art and Body Art. Through texts and images, the book demonstrates the conceptual move from grandiose, large-scale and labor-intensive earthworks to the more intimate, expressive, and psychologically charged medium of the artist's own body. Dennis Oppenheim has had a profound impact in forever altering the idiom of sculpture and what constitutes a work of art. Land Art, which first became known to a wider public with the Earthworks show at the Dwan Gallery in New York and the Earth Art exhibit at Cornell University Gallery in 1968, was a seminal movement in the critical discourse after Minimalism. Artists made an all-important maneuver to redirect energies beyond the gallery and museum setting by claiming, plotting and reshaping the land as art. Oppenheim had always used his body in producing Land Art, whether he was laboriously cutting through the ice for projects on the border of the United States and Canada or in stressing an embodied viewer in Viewing Systems, 1967. Oppenheim's body, captured on film through photographs and videotape, became the subject of his art. Discomfort, even danger and humor were the key elements in these quasi-autobiographical works in which the artist was his own canvas.
This volume provides a comprehensive account of Dennis Oppenheim's radical art practices of this explosive five-year period. Providing a principal means of spilling his Conceptual Art beyond the object or the gallery to investigate "real world" and "real time" embedded processes and places, Oppenheim's steps into performance from 1969 enacted the artist's body as the agent, material, and place of art, and extended his work toward multiple spaces and times, including cross-generational exchange. Directing the viewer toward his body as the source and material of his works, Oppenheim's procedures continue to critique the conventional material and conceptual limits of both sculpture and performance. This monograph follows Oppenheim's conceptual performance works in slide, film, video, installation and photographic form from 1969-1973, including a substantial framing essay, a newly edited interview with Willoughby Sharp, and extensive extracts from the artist's contemporaneous notes and statements.
